    Warranty Argument over Bad Battery Pack - 2019 Ram eTorque

    I apologize in advance for the long post, but it's been a long history of eTorque problems with my 2019. I appreciate any advice you have in dealing with Dodge on the latest issue. My electrical issues began in Summer 2021. The truck was exhibiting voltage drops over a few days and then...

    Which engine?

    Based upon my experience with my 2018, I'd stay away from the eTorque. My alternator went bad last year and it took the dealership 6 weeks to get one. Luckily it's covered under the emissions 80,000m/8y warranty. Then I started having electric charging issues when it's cold outside...

    2019 Ram - Replacing eTorque Alternator/Generator

    Looks like an impressive upgrade. But at $7,000 it's way beyond my budget.

    2019 Ram - Replacing eTorque Alternator/Generator

    Mike - you are THE MAN. Thank you! I called the service department and they couldn't find that the generator was a covered item in their system. I emailed them a copy of the 2019 warranty booklet to prove my case. I suspect they will see the light soon enough. Thanks again!

    2019 Ram - Replacing eTorque Alternator/Generator

    Thought I'd share my recent troubles, if only to vent. I have 42,000 miles on my Longhorn with eTorque. A couple weeks ago, I started getting the voltage trouble light with readings as low as 11.2V while driving. Hoping that it was just the battery and not a more expensive problem, I went...

    Thinking of getting a new 2019 1500, which trim?

    I was in your shoes just a few weeks ago. I went with the Laramie Longhorn with 12" and ORP. I'm having none of the problems with the 12 as others have reported. About the only thing I didn't get was air suspension and the panoramic roof. I'm sure that the air suspension is nice but it's...

    Mopar lifetime warranty question

    My insurance premiums and warranty costs have cost me much more than what I've been reimbursed via claims and repairs. So to me they've not been a good investment except for some piece of mind. Still I'd like to see some data on warranty costs and claims if anyone has a link or source...

    Anybody Have a 33 Gallon Tank?

    Before my first fill up yesterday, the fuel light came on with 60 miles remaining, or about 4 gallons. I like the early warning because that means I only have to put in 29 gallons. Any more fuel for one fill up would be too much to bear. :D

    If you could go back to your time of purchase.

    I'm actually second guessing if I should have gotten the 3.21 instead of the 3.92 axle for the better fuel efficiency. I already have a F-350 setup for towing heavy and this new Ram will be mostly a daily driver. It's nice to know I have the greater tow capacity when I'll need it, but not...

    Question for Ram Cares

    I'm not sure about the other trims, but my Longhorn has both.

    Optioned Out Laramie Longhorn vs Limited

    Agreed, but I think there are only 2 interior options for the Longhorn. The brown/black (aka New Saddle) interior was the winner for me. 409674[/ATTACH]'] and looking back.... 409676[/ATTACH]'] ...and the dash... 409678[/ATTACH]']

    Optioned Out Laramie Longhorn vs Limited

    I was asking exact same question until yesterday at the dealership I had them bring a Longhorn and Limited side by side. The Limited was black/black and the Longhorn was Delmonico Red/Walnut Brown with the New Saddle interior. They were both pretty much loaded except the Limited had the air...

    What color are you rocking ?

    Hello first timer here. I just picked up a new 2019 Longhorn yesterday. The exterior is two tone Delmonico Red over Walnut Brown and the interior the New Saddle combo. It seemed a little busy when I first set eyes on it, but it's growing on me.
